Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, yo uh, yo
You know we smokin' good, eatin'
Good, gettin' money, man, word
Uh, yo uh, yo, β€…yo

Iβ€…started off withβ€…nickel bags on the block
(Facts)
Earnedβ€…my respect from slidin' through
On the opps 2019, niggas invested in stock
Makin' six figures and pullin' up in the drop
(Skrrt) i'm twenty-five and a legend
You could compare me to Pac
Gamblin' at the MGM the same
Night he got shot (Rest in peace Pac)
My own boss, on dogs
I never punched in the clock
Bitches goin' out their ways to
Try and secure they spot (Ha ha haha)
With no deal, rocking gold
Pull a Bentley right off the lot (Skrrt)
Ice out my whole wrist
But I'm worth more than a watch
I been gettin' money
But just in case they forgot
I uploaded fifty bands on the 'Gram
Just so they could watch (You see me, nigga)
I used to weigh up eighths
Of Cookies without a scale
Used to camp out early AM waitin' on mail
Lost a couple packs
But I didn't let it affect me (Uh, uh)
Got it right back out of the mud
You gotta respect me
I never had my hand out once
I'd rather hustle i cherish my bread way
More because I struggled
When you down and fucked up
Your family won't even hug you (I seen it)
When you up six figures, that's when
They tell you they love you, uh
(Fuck out of here) i seen it all, shit
And now I got a clear view
Only time I see you now is in my rear view
Shit, it don't even matter if they hear you
Long as they feel you, real shit (Real shit)

We stayed down 'til we came up
Never changed up, we got our change up
Gettin' big money, now they hate us (yeah)
And now everybody showin' fake love
(Fake, fake, fake)
Stayed down 'til we came up
(We came up, nigga)
Never changed up, we got our change up
(Never changed)
Gettin' big money, now they hate us
(They mad, hahaha)
And now everybody showin' fake love
(Look, fake, fake)

I be tryna be a patient man (Huh)
But niggas gon' make me apply
Pressure that they can't withstand
Smile in my face at all the shows
Niggas would shake my hand
Then talk about me behind my back
Like I ain't they man (That's pussy)
Damn, I mean, ain't we fam?
I put paper in niggas' hands when
Them niggas couldn't save a band (Big facts)
I wrote this in Miami
Seats in the Wraith was tan
But I don't know what's goin' on lately
I just can't understand
Back when all the rappers was
Gettin' verses from me
I showed a lot of niggas love
Gave niggas verses for free
Same niggas I ride for put the
Work in for you for free
When niggas wouldn't do the same
And that shit is hurtful to me
(That shit hurt)
Niggas tried to pull the plug
Thinkin' it was curtains for me
But an uncomfortable situation is
Perfect for me (Ha)
That's why I fuck with Camino
That's why I'm workin' with Flee (yeah)
And I just made a quarter mil'
Shit is full circle for me (Ha ha ha)
God bless you niggas

We stayed down 'til we came up
Never changed up, we got our change up
Gettin' big money, now they hate us
And now everybody showin' fake love
(Fake, fake, fake)
Stayed down 'til we came up
Never changed up, we got our change up
Gettin' big money, now they hate us
And now everybody showin' fake love
(Fake, fake, fake)





That fake love shit, I hate
